I am on the conservative side (with reservations) on the gun control issue.

I am on the liberal side (with reservations) on the abortion/"right to life" issue.

I am on the conservative side (with reservations) on government regulation of small business.

I am on the liberal side (with very few reservations) on government regulation of large business.

I'm somewhere in the middle on government regulation of middle-sized business.

I tend to the liberal side on health care management and funding - with the reservation that if we set it up so doctors and other health care providers don't make much money, we're going to get second-rate health care providers as the smartest people go into careers where they can make good money...

And so it goes from one issue to the next.

America has only two political parties that count, and neither of them works for me.

So YOU decide which side I'm on, if you consider it that simple!

Peter.
